To not have given him a shot really was absurd unless you were beholden to Sanchez because you drafted Sanchez and had his tattoo. Anyhow, whatever I suppose most Jets fans would rather lose than try a guy out.

Again, post the Divisional round stats. I fully recognize that Tim had a nice game against Pitt, but a single game doesn't mean much when he was completely mediocre the rest of the season.

I'm sorry, but he's just not a good QB. Just because he's a nice guy and had one nice game along with a plethora or bad ones doesn't mean he deserves a shot. He had a shot in Denver and was awful. Deal with it and move on.

If it makes you feel better, I thought we'd at least give him the last game and was surprised when Mark was named the starter after McElroy got bumped with migraines. In any event, Tim is not an answer and will only serve to be a backup, if anything, the rest of his career.

If anything, I'd see if he can play FB or make him a short-yardage back. He'd probably do well at FB given his size and physicality, and he's virtually impossible to stop on Down & Inches/Short. Could be an asset there, but he's not an NFL QB.

He didn't back down at all. Rather, he realized that it's kind of pointless to argue with a fool, as the only place to go is down at that point.

As the one set of stats showed, that "awful" "not a real QB" has the 2nd best playoff game performance in NFL history.

You may be correct about the backup QB role but heck if I'm coach I would have given the backup some reps on a lost season. Just did not make sense unless Rex just absolutely feared him doing well.

They think he's not an NFL QB - the Jets and Jags were the only teams interested when Elway put him on the trading block. Now the Jets aren't interested and neither are the Jags. Why is that not enough for you people?

Rex feared nothing, lol. Why would he fear Tebow doing well? Because some fans would get cranky and call him chubby at games? This is a business and Rex is making bank by doing things that the fans have been pissed at for ages. Trust me, I somehow doubt that Rex would leave Tim on the bench if he thought he would be better.

That said, we could have at least given him a start to end the season. I didn't really get that, but whatever.

Considering no one but us and Jacksonville wanted him a year ago, and now not even Jacksonville wants him now, I'd say we know pretty well what other teams think.

We'll see. Time will tell. Using reason with some folks is like peeing in a fan.

But just for laughs a joke:

LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE

An atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane and he turned to her and said, "Do you want to
talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."

The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to
talk about?"

" Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after
death?" as he smiled smugly.

"OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a
deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a
horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?
The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have
no idea."

To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss why there is no God, or no Heaven
or Hell, or no life after death, when you don't know shyt?"

Being biased and saying we should give Tim absolutely everything no matter what DESPITE him showing he's not a good QB isn't using reason.

Being deceptive is not reason. Whoever said we should give Tim absolutely everything? Never read that from anyone. You just made it up. Some folks have only said we should have given him a shot. That is all I have ever said. Made sense to me but now is moot.
